They are never done.Sounds about right. Apparently my nonexistent sex life is the most interesting thing about me…who knew?
Not me, but those anons sure did. We should thank them.

[pm] Well, first of all we are human. My parents were completely human, their DNA combined to make a completely human child. Slayers not being human would be like two cats somehow giving birth to a dog. Or like the book version of Stuart Little. Secondly, slayers are already alienated as is, I think we can handle the add on. I see what you are saying though. Thirdly, I do think that in a way human laws don’t apply to us. We work in a different realm than the rest of the world. Behind the scenes if you will. Slayers make sure that the world keeps turning, that there’s a human race left to make laws for.[pm] You’re certain? Nothing at all that could have affected your blood or muscles, accelerated you to the point of physical superiority that you now are? Good. Then it cannot be used against us either.
As to your third point… I disagree. Vehemently. Everyone should be held accountable under the law, Buffy, I do not care how many lives you save. If Mother Teresa had stolen money or something like that, she still deserved to be put through court and deal with that cost. No one should be exempt from the law, period.
It does bring an idea to mind, however. If we can pass Slayers off as soldiers at war, murder might be overlooked as well as damages caused. Doesn’t help with Registration much but it may help somewhat. Help with some Faith’s charges at least.
[pm] Well we got powers, but we weren’t born with them. If anything they are a mutation. We still call people affected by radiation humans don’t we? Maybe I worded that wrong, when slayers are dealing in the human world of course we should follow human laws. I don’t mean to say otherwise. But when it comes to the supernatural realm, which we are equally as much a part of, there are some laws that get in the way. I’ve broken the law before, but so have you. Sometimes you break the law for the greater good. There are times when, if I hadn’t broken the law, there would be no world. I’m not just saving a bunch of lives Leslie, this is the entire world we’re talking about. There are supernatural forces so much greater than anything you’ve ever experienced. These forces don’t care about laws, or civilizations, or any human things. When they work outside of the human realm, I have to get on their level. It’s a necessity. And we are at war, there is a war waging on constantly between the forces of good and evil. And I’m not trying to be dramatic here, I know it sounds ridiculous and blown out of proportion, but it’s not. I’ve experienced it. That being said, I get what you’re saying about the murder, but I’m not sure how I feel about that. To say that all human murders committed by a slayer are collateral damage in the supernatural war is maybe giving more leniency then we deserve. I do not approve of taking human life unless it is absolutely necessary, and that means slayers too.
[pm] Good. It’s a last ditch move that would likely alienate Slayers but it would grant some time. Argue that Slayers are not fully human or are different enough so that the laws may or may not apply. I don’t like this argument much but it may work.

I did have a good day, thanks for asking. I’m glad to be back in my apartment.
Was your day also full of goodness?
It is always good to be home.
My day was full of cheeseburgers, a side of training and a small dose of home sickness. It was relaxed, in other words. I am not used to that.
Neither am I. I’ve been having many many relaxing days as of late, and there’s always something sort of unsettling about not being useful. At least for me.
[pm] First I must ask, do you know what sets Slayers apart from the rest? Why your blood is so notoriously coveted? It’s slightly offensive, but works into my theory of why vampires aren’t being arrested left and right. Does that matter to you?
[pm] I can’t promise I won’t be offended, but if you tell me anyways I promise I won’t be rude to you. I’m very good with the self control. Just tell me all your thoughts on it, if you’re wrong and I know it, I’ll let you know it. Don’t worry about that.

The shopping is top notch I can tell you that. And there’s a bunch of cultural stuff there. In L.A.
It was, but people lose things every day. Sometimes you can get them back, sometimes not. The hellmouth there is sealed, which really is the silver lining.
The fact that loss happens frequently does not make it any less significant when it happens. But yes, that is quite the silver lining.
Enough of that, though. Have you had a good day?

[pm] Done and done. Should anything questionable or even slightly illegal occur, please drop a line. Or something. A heads up at least helps. Although… come to think of it, there might be an argument to work for this. A technicality. Care to hear?
[pm] Might boggle my mind, but go for it.
[pm] Don’t worry. Haven’t destroyed a grave stone in weeks.
If any other ideas about this come to you or you have some sort of epiphany, feel free to let me know. And if a favor comes along suitable for me, by all means, I’m always willing to help when it’s for a cause I can support.

Born and raised there, but I tend to consider Sunnydale my home town. Or I did. Before it fell into the earth. I guess L.A. is as close as I’ve got to a home town now.
I see.
I have always wanted to go to L.A. I hear it is an amazing city.
I am sorry for what happened to Sunnydale. It was a great loss, I wager.

Ah, the California roll. Reminds me of my days in L.A.
They are very nice.
You have spent time in L.A?
